Find Peace With God

December 27, 2013

The Lord will bless his people with peace.
–Psalm 29:11

How do we find peace with God? We must stop fighting! We must surrender! We must serve! Of course, these steps will be motivated by faith and mingled with love. Having found peace with God, next we experience the peace of God.

This peace of God is not a mere abstraction advocated by preachers and theologians. Thousands of people can witness that they have actually experienced the peace of God and have found it wonderfully adequate for this present day. “For He is our peace.”

Prayer for the day

Father, I thank You for the peace You have given to me, which does not depend on feelings or circumstances.

All of the world needs to follow and obey God in order to have peace in our lives and in the world. Take the time to pray to God and ask Him to forgive you of your sins and become a saved born again christian, all it takes is a little time .

It is not necessary to live a stressed out life. Yes there will be difficult times for sure but how you handle them is what matters. Turn to God ask him to come into your life and personally help you. It will be the best choice you ever made.

LORD, May I always keep my eyes on YOU, my SOURCE OF PEACE! And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful (Colossians 3:15).With my every breath I'm holding on to You my PRINCE OF PEACE.

Isaiah says that he is the prince pf peace. I thank Jesus that he came over 2000 years ago to give us peace and anybody can have this peace if they accept Christ as their savior.

If your world seems to be falling apart and you do not know God . Peace of mind is unattainable on your own. However, Peace, is available, all you need to do is ask Jesus Christ into your life. Then watch what happens.

This is it! That's what its all about simply GOD reaching out to us and us responding to his love.

Peace is truly a gift from God.

Gerry says 12.27.2010, 05:38 a.m.

In the midst of human anguish and trials there can be found a Godly peace that surpasses all human understanding. This peace is available to all who have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As God's children the Holy Spirit resides in our hearts and is the source of this incredibly, amazing, peace. If you do not personally know him I implore you to invite him into your life today and experience this peace for yourself............its Free
